There are a million threads on this forum regarding engine break it, but here are the two different view points that are argued every time:

1. Go by the book. Keep the revs under 4000 rpm for 1200 miles, try not to drive the same speed for long periods of time, etc (in the car manual).

2. Drive it like you stole it. From day one, drive the car like you would normally because with the manufacturing tolerances these days, the traditional engine break-in period does not really apply anymore.

Use the search function on the forum or Google if you want more info.
No need to lock a thread when nothing has been said to warrent it. Yet.
